Hello i have 4 litres now of "aspen 2" left. I already used 1 litre through the zenoah g260. It is 50:1 from what ive read on the internet. So what should i do right now; simply keep running till none is left of it and then start mixing fuel myself or is it possible to add some "Oregon" 2 stroke oil to the "rtr aspen 2" fuel? Is the oregon 2 stroke oil actually fine for the zenoah or shouldn't i use it anyway? I'm in europe and it is hard to buy American products... btw, i have posted something relatable a short time ago but i just still had these specific questions left that can't be found on other forums. (Edit: i had a great laugh reading them civilised discussions👍)

Just start fresh and mix your own.Gas is not that expensive in Europe. Honestly I will never run 50:1 in any of my cars.

I use 28:1 with quality oil.

Thank you. This was my first gas rc, so i am basically kinda a newbie🥲 do you mix your oil with gasoline 92, 95 or 98?

Yes I mix my own. 91 is maximum we can get here in California. I would go with 95 or 98.

i still got some of that "50:1 rtr aspen 2 fuel" in my fuel tank of the fg monstertruck. Should i just run that till the engine leans itself out? Should i clean the engine or tank before putting in another fuel? And from now on, shouldn't i ever keep fuel in the fuel tank, like in nitro? Because the 50:1 rtr fuel is in that tank now for a long while, i haven't started it since my spark plug got ruined for driving too rich (already mentioned being a newbie)
 
No need to clean the fuel tank when switching fuels.
98+ octane isn't going to hurt if you can get it. It will help prevent detonation if running too lean or too hot.
I like koltz 2 stoke degummed castor oil at 32:1. Yes you should run your tank empty or empty the tank after use. However, it's not as important as a nitro, you can leave it for a week if you plan to use it again.
 
My side hurt from laughing so much. I have gallons and gallons and gallons of 50 to 1 through my first g320 with out ever having an issue. Mixed with regular old pump high test. Most don't even own engines that need higher then pump high test. Heck even now they live on 40 to 1 simply because thats what the saws run and I'm not about to mix different ratios of fuel up.
BTW, you can just add oil to the aspen to bring the ratio to whatever you want it at. Aspen is one of the best canned fuels out there.
